Check date format in SQL
How do i check format of date in SQL meaning either it is MM/DD/YYYY of DD/MM/YYYY,
Thanks for reply olafhelper .
But then how SQL differentiates between such dates Either it is 4 May 2023 or 5 April 2023.
or if date format is chosen for Field while creating data table in the SQL.
So How do we get that, in which format date is stored.
Sandip11850 if you have a table column of type date/datetime, then SQL Server stores the value as some binary/numeric without any format information.
It's always the frontend that formats the value and a good app should consider here the localize settings of the user.
